One Syllable Mystery
Use one syllable mystery when your goal is to improve your team members’ communication style and their focus abilities. Only you will need index cards with different terms.
Divide your team members into two separate teams, A and B. Each team should select one person to be their Clue Giver.
The clue giver draws one card and tries to lead the teammates to guess the mysterious person/place/object written on the card. The person giving the clues can only use one-syllable words to describe the item from the card.
For example: “This is what you need to buy things” (Money).
While the clue giver from one team is trying to explain the term, members of the opposite team are supposed to listen attentively and pick out mistakes.
If they catch the opposing team’s clue giver uttering multi-syllable words, the opposite team is not given any points.
This is a fantastic and fun communication team building activity. Adequate communication in your team is necessary and essential.
Remember that miscommunication on your team isn’t just a common workplace annoyance. Regardless of the reasons behind the lack of proper communication, the bottom line is that without effective communication, the team would not be able to achieve the goals.
